My family has always been very reliant on fast foods. Some of my most nostalgic memories are linked with various dollar menu items and kids meals. One of my favorite memories in getting a Wendy’s frosty at the beginning of summer every year. It was always a big dilemma of which flavor to order: chocolate, vanilla, or twist. I always ordered twist, because of my major FOMO. It didn’t take me long to realize chocolate was ultimately the better flavor.
I wanted to recreate this creamy chocolate ice cream in a smoothie bowl. And here it is!
Here’s what you’ll need.
Ice
Zucchini
Banana
Cocoa Powder
Protein Powder
Almond Butter
Almond Milk
What’s a smoothie bowl?
If you’ve been living under a rock and have never heard of a smoothie bowl, well let me enlighten you! It’s a smoothie but made like frozen yogurt. It’s thicker and fluffier, and it generally has toppings. I topped this recipe with banana, granola, dark chocolate, almond butter, and chia seeds. It was freaking delicious.
